how to find approximate time stamp from an array of time stamp

[thirumala]

Hi,

Can some one suggest a logic to find out the index from a time stamp array for a specified time stamp constant.

The array may not conatin the exact time with specifed seconds. So it can be near by time value.

(The array of time stamps may have around 10,000 elements)

Thank you.....
